SotD: Sunday 18th November 2012

Good morning all !. SotD is Ulrich Lang Lightscape.

Perfect day here with cloudless skies, frost, zero windchill. Outward bound shortly followed by lunch in a traditional pub. Managed to persuade the better half that she should drive (real ale you see - G will understand )

Good morning, all! It's cold in London but at least it's not raining, eh?

Sampling Ipo by Saffron James. It is a light and tender fragrance that is perfect for a hot summer day... But I would also wear it on cold day such as today as a pick-me-up. I love the lemongrass and orange blossom notes in this, but I also detect frangipani. It's not listed in the notes though.

It's an exquisite Sunday in Guerlain L'Heure Bleue EdP

I'm buying a new perfume shortly and I'm seriously torn between Parfum d'Empire Cuir Ottoman and M.Micallef Style. Don't know which one to chose. I think I like both equally but Cuir Ottoman was on my wishlist longer than Style. Help!

Easyfish, how did you manage to bribe my mama to release that childhood snapshot of me? Seriously, next time I go to Europe I am so stealing one photograph where I was trying to make a berry fragrance (do not know the name of them berries in English, they are orange and grow in clusters on the trees that have small oval leaves) at the tender age of 5, and the cat was involved too. Now that brings some memories.

Good morning/afternoon, everyone -

I'm in vintage-70s Jolie Madame edt this morning. I rarely crave this one, but when I do it's simply perfect. Y'all have a great day!

Science is not only compatible with spirituality, it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual...Carl Sagan

Have I told you about the scent of jasmine? Have I spoken about the smell of the sea? The earth is scented. And I perfume myself to enhance what I am. That's why I can not wear a perfume that bothers me. Perfuming is an instinctive wisdom. And like all art, it requires some knowledge of yourself..."

Lutens before breakfast today. Normally a nocturnal wear for me, Sarrasins by day strikes me as more vegetal, perhaps the fresh air made it so as my son and I ventured out to brunch on a crisp sunny day.

Hope those ales (I presume there was more than one imbibed) hit the spot, Jon ! Nothing quite beats a CAMRA pub

I cooked a curry for dinner and my fingers are still burning slightly from all the chillies I chopped. Par for the course, I guess.

Hope you're feeling better, 30R!

Lucasai, you know how fond I am of Cuir Ottoman, I have to give it my vote!

Evangeline guessed it right, birthday party for a friend last night and I sort of behaved. Not feeling too bad at all today! More birthday partying this afternoon, this one for the neighbors' little boy. Just about partied out. Wearing Cristalle EDP today. Have a nice Sunday, everyone!
